Amy Klobuchar and O'Rourke have to do something.
Otherwise the money will dry up.

Mayor Pete has a ton of money on hand,
so he can fight on.

Sanders and Warren supporters will stay with them through 2024.

Thank you. Thank you very much.

I want all of them to do well, but it feels like Beto is at a make or break point.

I also think Amy has a chance to shine.

We'll see!

Edit to add:. Bernie is at a critical point in his run as well. Elizabeth just needs to continue to do her thing.

He's got that "it" factor. I like him and think he's got a bright future ahead of him. He's a good egg.

I didn't choose an option because I think both Beto and Amy need to have a good night and I can't choose both.

Expect Warren to be zeroed in on Bernie all evening. Beto, Amy, and Mayor Pete are already too far out of the spotlight in this crowded field.
